VERY DETAILED MAP OF OUR GALAXY
This comprehensive map showcases the Milky Way with a radial grid scaled in light years and centered on the Sun. The main structural components are highlighted along with prominent globular clusters, nearby nebulae, main arms, and spurs. In addition, the constellations that traverse the galactic plane are noted for easy reference and orientation. The base image used in this map is a modified version of the concept by R.Hurt/NASA/JPL-Caltech/SSC.
A side view of the Local Group of galaxies that contains the Milky Way, Andromeda and other 120 minor galaxies. The main map is accompanied by technical sheets and expected future path for major group members, top view and a neighboring groups scheme. Developed in July 2022 by Pablo Carlos Budassi.
